It’s been almost a year since I’ve written about my OS X and iOS device set-up, so let’s see what’s changed. Apple Cinema Display Last March I finally moved on from my 2007 iMac and 2010 MacBook Air and bought the early 2015 retina MacBook Pro 13″ – a much needed update. Last week I added a new, well technically old,… Read more →

Back in September 2015 when watchOS 2 was released, one of the features it brought with it was Nightstand mode. This means when the Apple Watch is charging and on its side, you can use it as a nightstand clock and an alarm clock. At that time I was only a month or so into using a bamboo dock to… Read more →

Unlike a good many of my friends, I wasn’t too excited at the prospect of Apple Music coming late June 2015. Music streaming subscriptions have never really appealed to me, I’ve always preferred buying and owning it but I never fully explored the precise reasons as to why I was so opposed to the idea of ‘lending’. When I’m not… Read more →

I’ve been using Instagram since the very early days when it was an iOS-only affair and it still remains my favourite social networking community out there. So this week I was thrilled when they introduced support for landscape and portrait formats. On more than one occasion recently I have been forced to use 3rd party apps such as Whitagram to… Read more →

MacBook Pro 13″ with Retina display iPhone 6, 64GB in Silver Apple Watch Sport, 38mm, white band iPad mini (1st gen), 16GB, White. In… Read more →

Having received my Apple Watch Sport 38mm last week, I wanted to write down some very brief thoughts after almost 7 days with it. I have always worn a watch, mostly exclusively for fashion rather than functionality. My wrist feels naked if I go out without it. However, the only time I would put on a watch was when I… Read more →

Recently I started my search for a new piece of jewellery to replace my beloved Donna Karan ring that is now just too big for my finger due to steady weight loss over the years. I wanted something that looks equally as special, perhaps even more so. A friend recommended I take a look at Boticca, a global marketplace for… Read more →
